I'm generally trying to stay out of this thread, because I disagree with pretty much everything Reed wrote (and think that proposing a major change to the development model is a funny thing to do when you haven't been an active contributor for years).

That said, I'd like to point out that the mean time between someone sending me a request for commit access (along with the correct password hash) and them being granted commit access is around 1-3 hours. If someone has observed a practical problem  I'd love to hear about it.
